How Our Reading Software Works

Fast ForWord builds processing skills in tiny, incremental steps, not unlike how physical skills are learned — slowly at first, gradually building in speed and complexity. Each exercise requires hundreds of sequencing and sound discrimination decisions in quick succession, adding speed and complexity at your child’s own pace, building the cognitive skills needed for reading.

Documented ResultsFast ForWord has been peer reviewed in studies covering 30,000 students and it has been the subject of 700 white papers. It has been used by 3+ million students in 42 countries and was rated “most effective” out of 24 reading programs in a comprehensive 2-year Nevada State study.

Programs By Age

Younger children, 5 years and older, work mainly on processing, language and phonological awareness. Our exercises are adaptive, meaning students progress at their own pace, without frustration.

Our middle and high school reading programs revisit reading speed and fluency before focusing on reading comprehension and the critical thinking skills needed in high stakes tests.
